Gracias a Dios Mexicano

Verdict

Mexicano has a growing following because the agave rewards attention; this bottle gives you enough of it to understand the appeal, not enough to answer why the cult exists. The Gracias a Dios house proof stops a couple steps short of where mexicano actually lives. Rey Campero's mexicano is the same money and the full argument.

Tasting notes

Nose: Green herb, then cooked agave, faint mineral

Palate: Cleaner and thinner than the reference mexicanos – the producer's standard profile

Finish: Medium, dry, herbal

The bottom line

Rey Campero's mexicano outperforms at similar money
